Tanna said: "Last night you said that you met Tange, I was actually very happy, and I also hoped that she was not dead, but you said that she was related to my father's death, but I couldn't believe it, because In my impression, although Tange did not enjoy her father's love for a few days, she actually admired my father very much."
"We have only met once and played together for almost half a month, but we are already good friends who talk about everything. I think I know her very well."
Tanna fell into memories: "She is a simple-minded girl with no bad intentions. When we play together on the road, we often meet people in need of help, and she always takes the initiative to lend a helping hand."
"For such a good girl, it's really hard for me to believe that you said she would be involved in harming my father."
Meng Qingxiao just listened quietly and did not interrupt.
Tange continued: "But, who knows, as the king's daughter, she has never enjoyed her father's love for a day. If it were me, I would definitely blame my father, right?"
"Alas..." Tanna sighed leisurely.
"Actually, you know, born in an imperial family, although you enjoy various conveniences that ordinary people cannot enjoy, you also lose a lot, such as family ties."
"There are many uncles, brothers and sisters in my family, but I am the only one who is favored by my father. My father has always been kind to my second brother. Especially after my eldest brother died in the war, my father was very kind to my second brother. Being more strict always puts him at the forefront.”
"I have several uncles who have been coveting the throne. My father killed two of them because of this. My eldest uncle and fourth uncle were all killed by my father with the intention of treason."
"Only my third uncle and my father have the best relationship. It's a pity that my third uncle was killed by my uncle to protect my father."
Meng Qingxiao asked: "How uncle is Botong to you?"
"Uncle Wu, he is my youngest uncle and he loved me very much when I was young."
"what about now?"
"I don't know now." Tanna smiled bitterly, "Since I turned 30 and became an adult, my parents won't let me visit my fifth uncle's house."
"Only 30 years old to become an adult?" Meng Qingxiao screamed strangely, feeling like he was hearing a fantasy again.
Tanna said: "We Boki people have an average lifespan of 200 years, and isn't it normal for us to reach adulthood at 30?"
"Oh, you are not immortal?"
"No, but I'm not envious either." Tanna's will was a little depressed, "Especially for children of the royal family like me, men often die very early, leaving a group of orphans and widowed mothers at home. What's the point of living?"
"Why do you say that men's lifespan is much lower than women's?"
"It's not a matter of longevity, it's a matter of power struggle." Tanna explained.
"I have studied history. In the past thousands of years, 80% of the royal family members in all countries have not received a good death. Even if they are immortals, there are very few people who can live over 500 years old. Most of them are between two and three hundred years old. He died when he died."
"Let me go, is the power struggle here so serious?"
"It's more serious than you think." Tanna said, "Look at my father's body now. How many people have gone to see his soul?"
"Aren't you going to mourn him and keep him lying there?"
"Of course the funeral will still be held, but it will have to wait until the new king is elected and the new king will preside over the funeral."
"How long will it take?"
"Who knows, it could be days, it could be months, it could be years."
"I'll choke you."
Meng Qingxiao felt it was unimaginable. Fortunately, it was cold here and the body would not rot. If it were on earth, the king would have been infested with maggots.
"Let's not talk about it anymore." Tanna smiled lightly, showed the pendant to Meng Qingxiao and said, "If Tange is not dead, we should be able to find clues from this."
"How to say?"
"As I said just now, this is a multi-functional magic device. It can do a lot of things."
Meng Qingxiao couldn't imagine how to use this thing at all. He could only smile and said: "Fortunately you are willing to help me, otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to find it."
The two left the bedroom, and Tanna led Meng Qingxiao to a small room. This should be the study, Tanna's personal study. Although there were not many books in the room, there were a lot of magical equipment in it.
Tanna found something, which was connected to a palm-sized black round plate by a data cable. It looked like a wireless charger on Earth. Tanna put the pendant on it, and then connected the data cable to herself. on the tablet.
After she turned on the computer, she said awkwardly: "I'm a computer idiot. I only know how to use it, but I don't understand anything else."
"What should we do?"
Tanna thought for a while and said, "I'll ask an expert to come over. Don't speak for a moment, in case he sees the flaw."
"It's okay. We earthlings have the ability to wrap our own voices with energy and send them specifically to a certain person. Others cannot hear it."
Tanna was surprised: "Is this still possible? It's amazing."
"Haha, the soil and water support the people."
Tanna pressed a few times on the wall to bring up a display screen, which seemed to be a local phone. She quickly connected to someone. Tanna turned on the speaker phone, and Meng Qingxiao could hear the conversation.
"Hey, who's there?"
"Villian, I'm Tanna?"
"Tanna?" The voice on the other end of the phone was very confused and seemed a little unfamiliar with this name.
"Princess Tanna."
"Oh oh oh, it's Your Highness the Princess. What do you want from me?"
"I want to ask you a favor. I wonder if you can come to my place?"
"Princess, if I provide door-to-door service, the fee will be very expensive."
"I know, are you worried that I can't pay you?" Tanna's voice was a little unhappy.
"No, no, I definitely don't mean it. I have time now and will come right away."
After hanging up the phone, Meng Qingxiao dared to speak and said with a smile: "Your helper has quite a personality."
"That guy fell into the eyes of money, it's true." Tanna curled her lips, "But his skills are really strong."
Meng Qingxiao pointed to the dead phone on the wall and said, "Are all your phones mounted on the wall? Are there any handheld devices?"
"Yes. The military only uses handheld devices, and civilians rarely use them."
"Why?" Meng Qingxiao asked confused, "Is this a control device belonging to the military?"
"There is no control. Here, calls are free. There are fixed phones everywhere on the street. It is very convenient to contact anyone. So there is no need to buy a special phone. You have to hold it in your hand all the time. You are afraid of losing it. Even if you don't know how to If you throw it away, it won’t be a hindrance.”
"So how do you deal with your address book, and how do you answer the phone?"
"Use a card implant." Tanna explained, "When we first register, the Census Bureau will implant a card in our body. It is directly connected to our brain and can help us store some important information. Data is also an identification card.”
"When I answer a call, as long as I touch the screen with my finger, my address book will be temporarily copied to the phone, and then I can call the person I want to contact."
"That's it." Meng Qingxiao seemed to understand, but it did feel quite magical. "It sounds very powerful, but what if you arrive in a place without telephones?"
"Anyway, there must be telephones in the city, everywhere. If we go to the wild, we will definitely bring a mobile phone with us. However, it is too cold in the wild. I have only been out once in my life."
While the two were chatting, Tanna heard her subordinates reporting that the man named Villian had arrived, and Tanna hurriedly invited him in.
This is another mixed-race boy, only as tall as Meng Qingxiao's chest, with a tail on the back, but his face is more like a Yuanjia person.
"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess." Villian saluted the Princess.
"Villian, you're welcome. You should already know that my father was assassinated. I invite you here just to help me investigate the cause of his death."
Villian wondered: "Wasn't His Majesty the King killed by foreigners?"
"You don't need to ask any more questions about this. Just do as I say. You can check whatever I ask you to do. Then take the money and leave. Don't say a word to anyone else. Your mission is considered completed."
"Yes, I understand." Willian agreed.
Tanna pointed to the pendant and said to Villian: "This is an important clue. First, help me see what mysteries are hidden in this pendant."
Villian did not use Tanna's equipment. He took out his computer from his backpack. It was also a crystal plate, but larger in area. He also had an external keyboard. The overall layout of this keyboard was similar to that on Earth. is slightly similar, but it is soft and can be rolled into a mess.
He placed the pendant on the wireless disk that read the data, and then tapped the keyboard with his fingers quickly. Meng Qingxiao looked at him as if he saw Sandwell, oh, his name should be Lan Che now.
Soon Villian said: "Your Highness, there is indeed a secret hidden in this pendant. It is a locator. The person who gave you the pendant can use it to find your location."
"In addition, it has the function of reading vital signs. When you wear it, if you feel unwell, the person who gave you the pendant can detect it immediately."
Villian guessed: "This should be given to you by His Royal Highness the King or the Queen. They were worried that something might happen to you, so they asked you to carry it with you."
"Then, there are no other functions?"
Villian shook his head: "No more."
"Then can you help me reverse the location and find out where the person who gave me the pendant is now?"
"Well, in theory it is possible. I can give it a try, but there is a prerequisite that the other party does not know that I have arrived. If he knows that I am helping you, he can unilaterally cut off the signal, and then I will be very happy. It’s hard to succeed.”
"Hurry up and give it a try."
"Okay." Villian tapped the keyboard frantically again, and not long after, he actually positioned himself in the opposite direction.
Villian pointed at the screen and said: "It's this place, Prince Botong's Mansion. Oh, the signal is disconnected. The other party already knows that I am checking them. No, they are tracing my identity in reverse."
